In Luke chapter 2, we are introduced very briefly to a Jewish man named Simeon. We don't know much about him except that He was a righteous and devout follower of God, and that God had told him (through the Holy Spirit) that he would not die until he saw the Messiah that he and all of Israel were waiting for.

As soon as Simeon saw Mary, Joseph, and baby Jesus at the temple, he broke out into a prophetic song, proclaiming that God had now fulfilled His promise and recognizing Jesus as the way to salvation for both Jews and Gentiles.

Simeon found what he had been waiting for in Jesus. And we have found the same thing in Jesus, too!

Luke 2:22-35
